I work privately, employed by the nhs family intensive support service and until May 2024 was VIG tutor on the CYP-IAPT at Exeter university. I practise VIG with families with children of all ages and have worked successfully with mothers and babies to fathers with teenagers. I love the fact that VIG can be successful with anyone! I have also used VIG with practitioners in schools, nurseries and colleges.
As a trainer I am able to run Initial Training Courses, from small to large multidiscliplinary groups. As a supervisor I have trained people from a range of professional backgrounds including psychologists, psychotherapists, mental health nurses, social workers within education, health and care settings including professionals working within child protection processes. I have an interest in developing VIG in different countries and cultures and was excited to train and supervise social workers in Tanzania. Although I'm based in Brighton and Hove I am able to travel and also offer online VIG intervention, supervision and training. More recently I have been studying the efficacy of VIG online as part of the University of Sussex Zoom or Room project. For VIG practice, supervision and training: www.yoursussexpsychologist.co.uk
